Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki. It changed my outlook on how I spend and invest my money. I have it in my Library and I have read it over and over.

It’s been awhile since I read it but Les Miserables by Victor Hugo. I read the abridged version and didn’t even realize it til afterwards cause it was still plenty long, but a great book that I found inspiring

The book that impacted me the most is a self-help book called You Can Heal Your Life by Louise Hay. I've read it multiple times and every time it leaves a new and refreshing impression on me. It calls to the forefront the lack of self-love we all have and how to truly fall back in love with yourself. It's packed with affirmations and guided lessons that are so inspiring but more than that, It feels like this book is just giving you a really big hug, its chock-full of great vibes and it's inspired me to love and respect myself fiercely, definitely recommend giving it a read. It could change your life like it did mine.

The Prophet by Khalil Gibran was it for me. I was going through a really rough time and it completely changed my perspective on life and love and change and gave me a lot of peace.

There have been a lot like this for me, but a more recent one would probably be “Midnight Library” by Matt Haig. It really had me thinking about the things that make life precious and how to live the life you’ve been given in the best way possible. I want to give a trigger warning for suicidal ideation, but if you’re able to read it, do. It’s one I still think of often and it’s been a few years since I’ve read it.
